Syyslaulu [Höstvisa] [English translation]

The journey home is so long, no passers-by

Evenings fade into cold dimness

Come to comfort me already, a gloomy mind

Sneaks into the loneliness of my autumn evening

Well, darkness makes you think of that

Which wouldn't otherwise be remembered at all

Now I remember how much I wanted to do

And how little of it I achieved

Hurry, my love, if love calls

The moments of day can't be so long

Let light be turned on, night arrives soon

Autumn takes summer's flowers away

I'm looking for something that we have forgotten

And which I could find with your help

Summer is short, like an unobtainable dream

Of what could have been different

Aren't you coming soon, before I'm left in darkness

- Surely everything can't have gone to waste

If we found each other, maybe then I'd see

A way how we'll make everything bloom

Hurry, my love, if love calls

The moments of day can't be so long

Let light be turned on, night arrives soon

Autumn takes summer's flowers away

Autumn's wind takes even the memories of summer

Now you ask in vain where it takes them

I guess I now love less than before

But more than you can ever know

Now we see the lighthouses when storms rage

Foamy wind carries a voice here

- And it's most important to follow our heart's voice

And give our all to each other

Hurry, my love, if love calls

The moments of day can't be so long

Let light be turned on, night arrives soon

Autumn takes summer's flowers away
